One child was killed and two women were wounded as a cannon ball was dropped on a Kurdish neighborhood in the second biggest city of Syria, Aleppo on Monday.

The city has been witnessing severe clashes between the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and the army of Bashar Al Assad for some time. Kurdish neighborhoods close to the city are also affected by the clashes.

The identity of the child killed by the cannon ball hasn't been disclosed yet. The two women wounded are reported to be Zeyneb Zino, 13, and Sebah Ewe, 40.

The cannon ball also caused severe damage in a building in the neighborhood whose residents said that artillery shootings are being made from the neighborhood of Siryan where the tanks of Assad's army are deployed.
